%N a(n) = 8*n^2 - 4*n + 1.

%C The old definition of this sequence was "Generalized polygonal numbers".

%C Row T(4,n) of A080853.

%C {a(k): 0 <= k < 3} = divisors of 25. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Jun 17 2009

%C Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of order n, defined by: A[1,j]=1, A[i,i]:=4, (i>1), A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=3, a(n-1)= coeff(charpoly(A,x),x^(n-2)). - _Milan Janjic_, Jan 27 2010

%C Also sequence found by reading the segment (1, 5) together with the line from 5, in the direction 5, 25,..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized hexagonal numbers A000217. - _Omar E. Pol_, Nov 05 2012

%C For n > 0: A049061(a(n)) = 0, when the triangle of "signed Eulerian numbers" in A049061 is seen as flattened sequence. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Jan 31 2013
